80ish 2nd gen rear with 1le rears?

Hey guys Im working on a problem for my father and his 1941 sedan delivery. The rear is out a 1980 camaro, I believe it was a drum brake but im not positive. Its got a 4 bolt pattern on the axle tubes. He picked up a set of 1LE calipers and rotor and now I need to know what backing plates will work. Any help would be great!

You should be able to use the stock plates and rotors but you may need to have the axle flanges turned down a bit to fit inside the rotors. Also, due to the staggered shock issue you'll likely need two right side calipers in order to make it work. It's a standard GM 10/12 bolt axle tube pattern.

HTH..
